Washington Square

Catherine Sloper, a plain and unassuming young woman in mid-19th century New Work, becomes entangled in a battle of wills with her overbearing father, Dr. Austin Sloper. When Catherine falls in love with the charming but penniless Morris Townsend, her father is convinced that Townsend is only after her inheritance. As tensions rise and loyalties are tested, Catherine must navigate the complexities of love, betrayal, and familial duty.
Set against the backdrop of the genteel society of Washington Square, James' masterful prose captures the nuances of human relationships with precision and depth. Washington Square is a timeless exploration of the clash between duty and desire, innocence and manipulation, making it a captivating read that continues to resonate with readers today.

HENRY JAMES [1843 -1916] was born in New York but emigrated to Europe early in life. He is one of the most important figures in Anglo-Saxon turn-of-the-century literature, with novels such as The American [1877] and the horror novel The Turn of the Screw [1898].
